What's the difference between the novel and the comics? Same story?
Edit
- Well, it's all part of one big story, but the novel focuses mainly on Prince Xizor, and Luke, Luke, Lando, and the gang. The comic looks at the story from Boba Fett's point of view, while the video game looks at it from Dash Rendar's point of view. Adamwankenobi 10:55, 12 Jan 2006 (UTC)
- By "Luke and Luke", you mean of course "Luke and Leia", right? ;) I believe, too, that there was a spin-off that focused on Guri. Also, the Devastator is mentioned as having appeared in the novel, but I was wondering where. Does anyone know? Gethralkin 17:57, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
bounty hunters!
Edit
I don't remember IG-88, Boba Fett, Bossk, Zuckuss or 4-LOM being in the novel. Anybody remember what part of the book they were in?--Hobbie 00:12, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
- I read it a long time ago but i can still remember Boba Fett at the begining !Darth Nospher 23:12, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think he actually appears in the flesh. I think we just see Slave I flying away from the battle of Gall. Darth Something
- I read it recently, there are no mentions about Bossk, Zuckuss or 4-LOM. There is IG-88 in the game, but not in the novel. SAM 18:26, 22 October 2007 (UTC+3)
how did Luke get his X-Wing back so quickly? That's always bothered me.
The conversation between Darth Vader and the Emperor
Edit
There was this conversation between Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine at the beginning of the book I'm very concerned about. In the book the Emperor says to Vader: "We have a new enemy. Luke Skywalker.", while in the 2004 DVD version of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back the Emperor says to Vader: "We have a new enemy. The young Rebel who destroyed the Death Star. I have no doubt this boy is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker.".
Why didn't they include that line from the 2004 DVD version of The Empire Strikes Back in the book Shadows of the Empire? Please give me one reason why they should've done it years ago. AdamDeanHall 22:57, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
Because the book was written in 1996? —Unsigned comment by 76.127.45.153 (talk • contribs).
